Maldonado was scheduled to meet Caio Magalhaes on the January 14, fight card. With less than a week to find an opponent for Magalhaes, the UFC decided to remove him from the fight card, leaving the card with 10 fights at this point.

“Showdown” Joe Ferraro has been involved with Mixed Martial Arts for over thirteen years.
